Geocode Request

Request Body Members

Reperesents a request to geocode one or more locations. Request body contains the locations to geocode.

Element Definition Required
Location A list <> of GeocodeLocation object. Gets or sets the collection of locations to geocode.

Usage:
GeocodeLocation[] geocodeLocs = new GeocodeLocation[1];
geocodeLocs[0] = new GeocodeLocation()
{
  Address = new Address() { Zip = "08540" },
  Region = DataRegion.NA,
  RegionSpecified = true,
  GeoList = true,
  GeoListSpecified = true,
  MaxResults = 5
};
geocodeLocs[0].Address.StreetAddress = "Herrontown Rd";
geoListRequest.Body.Locations = geocodeLocs; 		Y
GeocodeLocation Members

Represents a location to geocode.

Element Definition Required
Address An Address object. Gets or sets the address that needs to be geocoded.
Usage: Address = new Address() { Zip = "08540" }; 		Y
GeoList A Boolean value. Gets or sets a value indicating whether to return a single match for the geocoded reslut or multiple matches(if they exist).
Usage: GeoList = true; 		N
MaxResults An Integer value. Gets or sets the value indicating the maximum number of results to be returned from a search(by default is null: indicates that all results are wanted).
Usage: MaxResults = 5; 		N
DataRegion An enumeration of DataRegion. Gets or sets the Region that the location is in.
Usage: Region = DataRegion.NA; 		Y
CitySearchFilter An enumeration of CitySearchFilter. Gets or sets a value that dictates whether city searches return city centers or cities with all their corresponding zips (default).
Usage: CitySearchFilter = GeocodeCitySearchFilter.CitiesWithZips; 		N
Calling ProcessGeocode 
GeocodeRequest geoListRequest = new GeocodeRequest();
       geoListRequest.Header = new  RequestHeader() { DataVersion =  DataVersion.ToString(), RequestType = "GeoCode" };
       geoListRequest.Body = new GeocodeRequestBody();
       // Specify the location(s)
       GeocodeLocation[] geocodeLocs = new GeocodeLocation[1];
       geocodeLocs[0] = new GeocodeLocation()
       {
           Address = new Address() { Zip = "08540" },
           Region = DataRegion.NA
           GeoList = true
           MaxResults = 5
       };
       geocodeLocs[0].Address.StreetAddress = "Herrontown Rd";
       geoListRequest.Body.Locations = geocodeLocs;

       // Create the authentication and authorization header
       AuthHeader soapHeader =  GenerateAuthHeader(APIName);

       // Create the service client
       ServiceClient service = new  ServiceClient();

       // Call API
       GeocodeResponse response = service.ProcessGeocode(soapHeader, geoListRequest);
